What a week it is has been here it is Thursday already and have to say it has felt like a short week hard to believe tomorrow is Friday anyway what have I been up to you may wonder to make the week seem short well it has something to do with going out pretty much every day. On Monday I had to go to the doctors to check on my blood sugar levels, I have now been put on another medication to help lower the levels something called Januvia 100mg tablets not sure yet if they are working or not I think they are but I have to go back and see her again on the 18th before I go back I have to have a blood test done better not forget about that, that’s to check about that my blood is clotting right so I can have the biopsy on my boob done.
Then on Tuesday I had to go with Jessica to an appointment that took ages and yesterday I went with mum over to see nan and then to see my dad who is in hospital (the Mater) he has been in the hospital since Monday and only today is starting to look ok he hasn’t been able to eat or drink anything since last Friday he was told he had thrush in his mouth and down his throat and oesophagus. He was unable to keep anything down and was in so much pain he really couldn’t eat or drink, he is at last starting to improve but not sure yet when he will be going home, anyway as I was saying yesterday I went with mum to visit him and nan we took Summer with us as I had her for the day as Kathy-Lee was at work.
Today I had to go over to the hospital myself for an appointment with the blood doctor who sent me for another blood test and said he will see me again in 6 months earlier if the test shows anything that needs to be addressed earlier. I told him that the last couple of weeks I have started to get very tired again so much so that I often need a nap in the afternoon if I don’t want to be in bed at some ridiculous hour which is why he decided to do the blood test. After my appointment I popped up and saw dad for a bit before coming home
Tomorrow is Friday and I have to not only do my weekly shopping but I have to go with Kathy-Lee over to the hospital for Summer’s ultrasound on her hips this time we are going to the John Hunter Hospital so won’t get to see dad while out. Then of course with it being Friday we will have Leo for the night and on Saturday I have an appointment at Charlestown so as you can see with all the bloody running around I have been doing this week it has felt like a short week.
This morning I drove Sydney-May to day care which is something I have started doing on Thursday mornings it is easier for Kathy if she doesn’t have to deal with taking both girls to the day care while she drops Sydney off and Sydney likes her nanna taking her.
Ok well it is now 2.10pm and I am feeling really tired again so I will post this then go and have a nap…………….
Hell – what a week! Thinking of you.
Yup a very busy week, hope you had an awesome nap!
Sounds like you need Calgon to take you away! (Calgon is a bubble bath and the commercial states to let Calgon can take you away from the busyness of life with a bubble bath) So here we always say we need Calgon to take us away…and thoughts of bubbles and be secluded away from it all floods out mind! 😉 So take a breat and let Calgon take you away! Prayers for you dad, hope he is better soon.
What a week you’ve had Joanne – it sounded exhausting. I can imagine how tired you are with all the chasing from one appointment to another, especially with doctor’s offices and hospitals. Hope all the results and tests turn out well in getting you the best treatment and back on track. Sounds like you’re headed in the right direction.
